I see the depth is only good, how will that influence the beauty of the diamond?

You might find the Holloway Cut Adviser which is available via the Tools / Cut Adviser link at the top of this page helpful in helping you to weed out the poor performers from diamonds which are likely to yield better visual performance. Here is the output from the HCA based on the measurements which you''ve provided:

Don''t even bother to request an IS for it.

Why is the GIA excellent cut, and a signature cut from Union?

You can go ask them. But from the proportion, not by a long shot.

Hi Tara

This isn''t a good diamond, what we call a steep deep. It will leak light, look more tinted because of that pavilion angle and leak light like a sieve, pass on this one.
